Clay,
There are several good quality swags on the market.
We own a pair of Down Under
Jumbuck XL which we have had for 9 years and they are still as comfortable as when we first used them.
Last year we purchased the current version of the same swag for our son and payed $399 for it. A "similar" swag was available for $100 less, but just laying on each of them on the
shop's concrete floor soon highlighted the difference in a premium high density ripple mattress of 60mm thickness that we chose.
Other features such as the XL (extra width) and full hoop style with leather corners, 15oz top cotton canvas and 17 oz bottom polyester base will give a premium quality swag that should last a lifetime, but of course you will pay a premium price.
Basically, look at the features you require such as hoop style, side or top entry, shooters window behind your head, extra room, as provided by the XL size and choose the brand that gives you the best quality, at the best price.
We often use our swags just as a mattress inside our tent, or at
home as bedding for "sleep over" guests and have received great feed back from our friends who have slept on them.
